The Baltimore Orioles have announced that they have hired Dave Wallace as their pitching coach. Wallace brings a decade of experience as a major league pitching coach to his new role, including the 2004 World Series champion Boston Red Sox and 2000 National League champion New York Mets.

He has worked as a pitching coach for four major league teams - the Houston Astros (2007), Red Sox (2003-06), Mets (1999-2000) and Los Angeles Dodgers (1995-97). Overall, Wallace has worked in professional baseball since 1981, serving as a major league coach, minor league coach and front office executive with six organizations.

Wallace replaces Rick Adair, who left the team earlier this year on a personal leave of absence and was not returning to the team next season.
